Hi Adrian,
Are you certain that you are using the default Price.afl formula (found
under Formulas -> Basic Charts -> Price.afl) and that it has not been
modified? The plot statement should look like the following:
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorBlack
), ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
I have no problem when using this code (and others of mine that I have
adapted to be sensitive to the View -> Price Chart Style setting).
Multiple panes with this code on it all convert when I change the Price Chart
settings. Suggest you open the file (right click on it and select Edit) and
see what the plot statement says. If it is missing the GetPriceStyle()
option, you can add it, and you can do the same to any code you write that uses
a price plot. See the AFL help file for more info on
GetPriceStyle.

Chart
Thanks Patrick, but that just changes the current chart. How do I change
the default, so every 'new default chart' that I create opens with a bar
chart, not candlestick?
I have tried saving the default layout, but no go. Any other ideas?
Thanks!

On the toolbar, View -> Price chart style -> Bars.

How can I make a new default chart default to a Bar Chart Style,
rather than Candlesticks?
Where is the setting that I missed?
Thanks

Hi chi,
Brief responses to your questions (the markets are open & I'm
trading, so not much time for detail):
1) Yes. See Foreign in help and numerous posts in this
group.
2) Yes. AB is very programmable. If you can
think articulate it, it probably can be done.
3) Try this to get started: Buy = C> MA(C,65) AND REF(C>
MA(C,65) ,-1) AND REF(C> MA(C,65) ,-2);

Programming Questions
Now that I've found a competent group that seems
willing to help, I would like to pose some questions: 1.
What is the best way to reference an index (i.e., S&P 500) and
depending on the condition of that index the formula would indicate a
buy signal for stock A or a sell signal for stock B? I am trying
to create a simple formula that trades two ETFs (MDY for longs and MYY
for shorts). 2. Is there a way to change your position
size depending on variables? For instance, I would like to
increase the size of my buys and decrease the size of my shorts in the
case where the overall market (i.e., S&P500 close > its 200 MA)
is in an uptrend. And vice versa. 3. I have been
reading some books and I wanted to emulate a formula that I read
about. It's very simple but I can't figure out how to do it
simply. If there are three consecutive closes above the 65 SMA,
then buy. If there are three consecutive closes below the 65 SMA
then sell. Any thoughts on how to do it? Thanks again for
everyone who helped me before. I'm going to guess that you'll be
hearing a lot from me.
